• Provide clinical consultation, case review, and interdisciplinary collaboration with clinicians, law enforcement, hospitals, courts, schools, EMS, and other community partners.
• Conduct regular meetings with each partnering police department to review program performance, discuss high-utilizer/frequent-contact individuals, identify trends, and strengthen collaborative partnerships.
• Attend and participate in monthly Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) meetings, coordinate CIT initiatives, and participate in the Annual CCIT training.
• Provide training and technical assistance to police, fire, EMS, schools, and community partners on behavioral health resources, involuntary commitment statutes (Sections 12, 18, and 35), threat assessment, diversion strategies, and appropriate levels of care.
• Obtain and maintain Comprehensive School Threat Assessment Guidelines (CSTAG) certification and provide consultation related to school threat assessment when appropriate.
• Attend local Bristol and Plymouth HUB meetings and other community collaborative meetings as assigned.
• Develop and maintain collaborative relationships with specialty courts (e.g., Mental Health Court, Recovery Court), probation, and other criminal justice partners to support diversion initiatives.
• Expand awareness of the Jail Diversion Co-Response Program through community outreach, relationship-building, ride-alongs, education, and technical assistance to agencies and police departments, including those not currently receiving Jail Diversion funding.
• Develop, expand, and maintain a comprehensive network of behavioral health, housing, substance use, and community resources to improve access to care and reduce service gaps.
• Identify recurring system barriers and service gaps and lead efforts to develop innovative referral pathways, community partnerships, and program initiatives to improve behavioral health crisis response.
• Convene and facilitate multidisciplinary case review meetings and post-critical incident debriefings to improve coordination, support staff, identify lessons learned, and enhance system-wide response practices.
• Research, evaluate, and implement emerging best practices in jail diversion, behavioral health crisis response, and co-response programming to improve outcomes and strengthen community partnerships.
• Assist with community outreach and engagement efforts as needed.
• Complete required program documentation, forms, data collection, and mandated reports in a timely and accurate manner.
• Maintain effective communication, collaboration, and consultation with co-workers, supervisors, and community partners.
